The article highlights the election of Anthony Tordillos in District 3, indicating a stand against corporate influence, specifically targeting PG&E's tactics to sway elections. Voters showed their commitment to integrity by choosing Tordillos over candidates tied to the utility company's corporate agendas. Additionally, it discusses the environmental concerns surrounding the use of neonicotinoid pesticides in agriculture, calling for California to follow other states in outright banning their use to save the declining bee population.
Thank you, District 3 voters, for standing up for what's right. Your voices were loud and clear: We will not allow PG&E to buy influence on our City Council.
Your landslide victory shows that honesty and independence still matter in San Jose. Let this be a lesson to PG&E and any other corporate actor: Our democracy is not for sale.
While the retail sale of these pesticides was banned in 2023, bees are still dying at a critical rate. We must stand up to the chemical industry before it is too late to save the bees.
We should be the next state to ban the use of these bee-killing pesticides.
